Dangerous Liaisons: Master Fu's Fury

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-"

A shrill alarm sounded, and before people in the banquet hall could react, the fire sprinkler heads above their heads started working, and it was as if heavy rain had fallen inside the house.

"what--"

"It's on fire, run!"

The guests screamed and ran away, especially the female guests, who were soaked like drowned rats, their hair flying in the wind, and their dresses sticking to their bodies, looking very miserable.

"What's going on? Is it on fire?"

Xiang Ze's face looked grim. He took off his suit jacket like a gentleman, put it neatly on Shu Xingwan's head, and protected her as they walked out.

"Given the current situation... let's leave first!"

Shu Xingwan didn't bother to be polite with Xiang Ze. He held up his coat and walked out quickly. As he walked, he started to run.

To be honest, she still felt a little happy in her heart.

It’s good that something like this happened.

Let's get engaged. She doesn't love Xiang Ze, especially when they were getting familiar with the engagement process, she and Xiang Ze were supposed to kiss, and she really couldn't bring herself to do it.

If she doesn't get engaged, she's afraid that she'll get entangled with Fu Yuzhou again.

No matter how you look at it, it is a dead end.

Under the guidance of the hotel waiter, the guests quickly left the hotel, but everyone was still a little frightened.

The Xiang family and the Shu family were jointly responsible for comforting all the guests. When something like this happened at the engagement party, it was ultimately a loss of face for the Xiang family and the Shu family.

"Boss Fu, as you expected, Ye Ruolan is really unwilling to let Mr. Xiang get engaged. If you provoke her a little, she will really start a fire."

Fu Yuzhou's special assistant and bodyguard, Fang Yuanzheng, a former special forces soldier and graduate of H Country Business School, stood respectfully beside Fu Yuzhou and reported to him.

Fu Yuzhou didn't say anything, but a determined smile appeared on the corner of his lips. However, that smile was somewhat chilling no matter how you looked at it.

Fang Yuanzheng was already accustomed to Fu Yuzhou's expression.

If anyone offends Mr. Fu, there will basically be no good ending.

"Have you found all her information?"

When Fu Yuzhou saw Xiang Ze escorting Shu Xingwan out of the hotel, his face darkened and he quickly changed the subject.

"I found it and I have sent it to your email!"

Fang Yuanzheng also saw Shu Xingwan.

He is the only person besides Fu Yuzhou who knows about Shu Xingwan's existence.

At the same time, it also witnessed the two of them from meeting, to falling in love, and then to separation.

When he saw her again, from the shock he felt at first to the calmness he felt now, he felt that Shu Xingwan was truly a remarkable person. Whether it was the previous eight years or now, she could always move Mr. Fu's emotions.

"Let's go!"

Fu Yuzhou took a deep look at Shu Xingwan, and that look contained so much.

Fu Yuzhou's car drove past Shu Xingwan.

Shu Xingwan walked out of the hotel, unaware that he was being targeted by the wolf.

She looked up at the dark night sky without even a single star and rubbed her hair in annoyance.

"Wanwan, from today on, we are an engaged couple. Let's go to the wedding room together tonight!"

Xiang Ze smiled faintly, put the suit on Shu Xingwan, pulled the collar and wrapped her tightly. He didn't want his woman to be seen by other men.

"I have a court session tomorrow, and I have some materials to sort out for the court session tonight, so I'm going to go back to my apartment tonight!"

Shu Xingwan spoke in a calm tone. She did not lie. She did have a court hearing tomorrow, but she had already prepared the materials and did not need to work overtime.

She just simply didn't want to be with Xiang Ze.

Xiang Ze frowned, "Are you rejecting me?"

"Xiang Ze, I'm not ready yet. Give me some time, okay?"

Shu Xingwan raised her hand to straighten Xiang Ze's crooked bow tie. She didn't want to hide anything and told him the truth directly.

Xiang Ze laughed and raised his eyebrows, "We have been in love for almost two years, and you won't even let me touch you except holding hands. Do you think this makes sense?"

"Xiang Ze, when we were together, I told you that I had been hurt in love, and accepting you was an important step for me to take towards you.

You also said at that time that you could wait for me. If you couldn’t accept it, I could…”

"Okay, stop talking. I was too impatient!" Xiang Ze interrupted Shu Xingwan irritably and held her hand. "Let's go. I'll take you back."

Shu Xingwan nodded and obediently let Xiang Ze lead the way towards the car.

The car started, Xiang Ze's expression was tense and he was obviously in a bad mood.

After a whole day of hard work, Shu Xingwan was indeed a little tired and took a nap leaning back in his chair.

Before yesterday, she would never have dared to say those words to Xiang Ze.

But ever since she heard the conversation between him and his mother in the small lounge, a seed of doubt was planted in her heart.

Xiang Ze had just forced her into a desperate situation, and her words were not only to reject him, but also to test him.

Sure enough, they were just each other's prey.

In the game between her and Xiang Ze, whoever takes the initiative will gain control.

As a lawyer, she must have sufficient evidence to support her ideas.

It seems that Shu Tengchang is not honest. He did not give her all the information about Xiang Ze.

That missing part may be the most important.

She has to think of a solution...

Shu Xingwan had a headache and raised his hand to rub his temple.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Xiang Ze turned his head to glance at Shu Xingwan who was rubbing his temple.

"Well, tomorrow's lawsuit is a bit troublesome and a bit of a headache."

Shu Xingwan didn't even open his eyes and just responded casually.

"Do you need my help?"

Xiang Ze gently held Shu Xingwan's hand and stroked her soft skin with his thumb.

"No need! Divorce lawsuits are all about wrangling, you won't like it!"

Shu Xingwan chuckled but did not pull his hand back.

"If you feel tired, don't work! I'll support you!"

Shu Xingwan raised an eyebrow, "How can you support me?"

"I am the great Master Xiang, how can I not afford to support you?" Xiang Ze glanced at Shu Xingwan with a smile, and pursed his lips towards the suit she was wearing, "There is something in my pocket, it's for you."

Shu Xingwan didn't say anything, but instead rummaged through his pocket, took out a secondary card, took it and looked at it, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Is this the gift you were talking about?"

"Yes, this is my supplementary card. There is no upper limit. You can spend as much as you want!"

Xiang Ze raised his chin proudly.

He knew how many women coveted his secondary card, but those women didn't deserve it!

Shu Xingwan chuckled and looked sideways at Xiang Ze, "Do you know that once a woman falls into the whirlpool of love, she will have a deep obsession!"

Xiang Ze was confused and asked, "What obsession?"

"Get this man, and his card!"

Shu Xingwan raised the secondary card in his hand.

"Congratulations, you got it!"

Xiang Ze squeezed Shu Xingwan's hand and laughed.

"But what if you get it? It's a man's card after all! He can give it to you today and to someone else tomorrow!"

When Shu Xingwan looked at Xiang Ze, her eyes were curved with a smile.

"you······"

Xiang Ze frowned and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shu Xingwan.

"When a woman spends a man's money, it's just a momentary pleasure, satisfying her insignificant vanity; but when a woman spends her own money, it's a daily pleasure, because she doesn't have to cater to a man's self-esteem all the time!"

"..."

Xiang Ze pursed his lips and tightened his jawline. He hated the feeling of not being needed by a woman.

"So, Xiangze, regardless of whether our marriage is successful or not, please stop saying things like 'you support me', okay?"

Shu Xingwan's tone was firm. Although she used a question, as if she was seeking Xiang Ze's opinion, Xiang Ze could hear that she was informing him that there was no room for negotiation.

"Okay, I get it. I will support you no matter what you do in the future!"

Xiang Ze sighed helplessly, and finally had to compromise, speaking in a doting tone.

"Thank you!"

Shu Xingwan smiled and said words of thanks, then looked straight ahead and stopped talking.

The car stopped downstairs of the apartment and Xiang Ze opened the door for Shu Xingwan.

"It's too late, you should go back and rest early, or I won't invite you up!"

Shu Xingwan got out of the car with her handbag, a smile on her face.

"Okay, take care of yourself and don't stay up late!"

Xiang Ze raised his hand and stroked Shu Xingwan's cheek, with a hint of infatuation in his eyes.

"Well, drive safely!"

Shu Xingwan took a step back and turned to leave.

Watching Shu Xingwan enter the apartment lobby, Xiang Ze took out a pack of cigarettes. The cigarette box was already soaked. He irritably crumpled the cigarette box into a ball and threw it into the trash can in front of him.

His mind was filled with Shu Xingwan's face that made him unable to stop. He looked down and his body actually reacted.

His eyes were deep as he got into the car and sped away.

He held the steering wheel with one hand and dialed a number with the other. When the call was connected, a deep male voice came from the other end.

"Master?"

"Prepare a woman and send her here!"

Without waiting for a response, Xiang Ze hung up the phone.

He has a suite at the hotel that he uses exclusively, but he doesn't go there often.

He didn't need to go there tonight, but Shu Xingwan stood him up, and he couldn't complain.

Ah!

He was actually being controlled by a woman.

His face was gloomy and it didn't improve until he entered the room.

He didn't even look at the woman with her eyes covered. His eyes were fixed affectionately and intently on the huge photo of the woman hanging on the head of the bed.

Even as the two people in the room were up and down, his eyes never left the photo.

The moonlight shines through the clean glass onto the photo. The face that looks exactly like Shu Xingwan's is smiling sweetly...
